Stand up comedy specials that\u2019ll crack you up<\/h2>\n

1. Dave Chappelle \u2013 The Age of Spin (2017)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

One of the most successful and renowned comedians in recent years, Dave Chappelle is a stand up comedy legend. After leaving his successful sketch series, Chappelle\u2019s Show<\/em>, abruptly in the mid-aughts, Chappelle came back to the stage after more than a decade in The Age of Spin<\/em>. Widely known for his material on African American culture and issues facing the Black community, Chappelle uses his exclusive Netflix stand up special to address several hot-button topics that have arisen during his hiatus. Covering everything from meeting O. J. Simpson (multiple times), to feeling slightly out of touch with a more \u201cpolitically correct\u201d culture, Chappelle approaches controversial topics with ease and always leaves us laughing!<\/p>\n

2. Taylor Tomlinson \u2013 Look at You (2022)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

Rising comedian, Taylor Tomlinson, tells all about her mental health, dating life, and getting bangs in her second Netflix special, Look at You<\/em>. From similarities with Selena Gomez to the hilarious story of how the title of her special came to be, Tomlinson is a natural on stage. She explores her mental health struggles in frank and entertaining ways; we especially love her dark yet hilarious story about getting hung up on by a suicide hotline! Look at You<\/em> is certainly a great showcase of Tomlinson\u2019s journey, honing her craft as a comedian.<\/p>\n

3. John Mulaney \u2013 Kid Gorgeous at Radio City (2018)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

This comedian is a ball of energy you just can\u2019t take your eyes off of in Kid Gorgeous at Radio City<\/em>. Delving into \u201cstranger danger\u201d, his memorable tenure as a Saturday Night Live<\/em> writer, and more, John Mulaney masterfully uses physical comedy to enhance his keen observations of the human condition. Get ready for Mulaney\u2019s animated riffs on the audacity of his alma mater to ask him for donations, the puzzling nature of Captcha tests, and his famous analogy of how the then-US President is like a horse loose in a hospital. Truly one of the best comedy specials for a night in.<\/p>\n

4. Eddie Murphy \u2013 Delirious (1983)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

Although you may have to dig into the catalogues a bit for this one, seeing a young Eddie Murphy in red leather start to cement his status as a comedy legend in this seminal 1983 stand up comedy special is worth it. As Delirious<\/em> was taped in the 80s (particularly at the beginning of the AIDS crisis), you should be prepared for a couple of offensive jokes in the already famously profane stand up set. However, Murphy\u2019s segments on ice cream trucks and family cookouts are truly timeless and are guaranteed to get a chuckle out of anyone.<\/p>\n

5. Michelle Wolf \u2013 Joke Show (2019)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

After a famously scathing set as the host of the 2018 White House Correspondents\u2019 Dinner, Michelle Wolf had many eyes on her by the time she took the stage in Joke Show<\/em>. It\u2019s safe to say that Wolf delivered, taking on modern outrage culture, pregnancy, sexuality, penises, and more without any reservations. Her theory on what the world would be like if men had periods is hilarious and layered, as she admits that women may not be too nice about it either if the tables were turned.<\/p>\n

6. Matteo Lane \u2013 Hair Plugs & Heartache (2023)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

As modern comedians harness the power of social media to introduce their comedy to the masses, many rising stars are releasing full stand up specials on various social channels. One such series is Matteo Lane\u2019s Hair Plugs & Heartache<\/em> on Youtube, where he shares his journey with hair transplant surgery, life during the pandemic, and hilarious encounters he has as a gay man in the heteronormative world. Seamlessly peppering in different impressions throughout his set, Lane finds humour in peculiar situations and in his misadventures with his opinionated friends. The riotous story about Lane and his friend playing Call of Duty<\/em> online with some \u201cstraight boys\u201d is worth the watch alone!<\/p>\n

7. Ali Wong \u2013 Baby Cobra (2016)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

Pregnant during the taping of her now-famous stand up comedy special Baby Cobra<\/em>, Ali Wong takes audiences on an amazing comedic journey. Starting with her awkward dating experiences to marrying her husband, to trying to conceive and finally being pregnant with her first child, Wong takes no prisoners with her skewering delivery. Flawlessly going from explaining how she \u201ctrapped her husband\u201d to delving into the nuances of the Asian American immigrant community, Wong\u2019s raw talent shines through in her breakthrough special.<\/p>\n

8. Kevin Hart \u2013 Let Me Explain (2013)<\/h3>\n
\"stand

In Let Me Explain<\/em>, Kevin Hart is recently divorced from his first wife and, in turn, tries to explain his flaws \u2013 compulsive lying, infidelity, irrational fears, and more. Get ready for literal fire to light up the stage, as Hart uses his famous brand of comedy in hilarious reenactments of outrageous situations and the colourful stories about his meteoric rise. Hart is, by far, one of the most popular and successful mainstream comedians in the recent decades, having even made the crossover into blockbuster films. It\u2019s great to see him in his natural element here, alone with a microphone and throwing his body all over the stage to tell his jokes.<\/p>\n

9. Wanda Sykes \u2013 Not Normal (2019)<\/h3>\n
\"stand
Wanda Sykes is confused with the state of the world in Not Normal<\/i> (Image: Netflix)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Veteran comedian, Wanda Sykes, skewers politics, racism, and reality TV in Not Normal<\/em>. With quick-witted and sharp critiques, Sykes explores the state of the world in 2019, as well as sharing amusing anecdotes about her personal life.

As an immigrant, Chieng gives thoughtful and hysterical ruminations on modern American life, his job as a comedian, and subway etiquette \u2013 all while being hilariously frustrated.<\/p>\n

11. Bob the Drag Queen \u2013 Woke Man in a Dress (2023)<\/h3>\n
\"bob

Watch Bob interact with the crowd like a seasoned pro as he tells a Gen Z audience member all about the perils of using the family computer as a child, waiting for AOL to connect, and trying to switch CDs in a moving car.
